We are a couple (Gary & Cindy) and this blog will be a journal of our experience retraining a thoroughbred race horse who has come off the track ("OTTB" = Off Track Thoroughbred).

April 6, 2011

Gary headed over in the afternoon to ride LBR.

They had a great ride with w/t/c flat work and then work over courses. AFter the ride, Gary rinsed LBR as he was sweaty. LBR still has not let go of his long winter hairs...it's thinning out, but he has crazy 2" long straglers.

They did some leading work thru ruts and culverts and LBR finally relaxed and stood in them.
